Through this well-known allegory, Plato identified ignorance with enslavement and cast philosophy in the role of liberatoras that which provided the way out of shadows into reality, falsehood into truth, the contingent and changing into the necessary and eternal. By linking the virtuous life with the life of reason, he established the place of philosophy in culture and its importance for practical affairs. This view of philosophy was opposed by the Pyrrhonian skeptics, who questioned the possibility of knowledge in order to oppose the claim that knowledge could bring happiness. Pyrrhonian skepticism, then, was an essentially moral position that called the Platonic conception of philosophy into question in order to bring about a tranquil and untroubled acceptance of the contingency and fallibility of common life. The skeptical tradition since the seventeenth century has lost this moral point and has gradually become identified with a fairly narrow and technical set of epistemological issues. In Philosophy in Question, David R. Hiley returns to the Pyrrhonian skeptics to recover the purpose of skepticism and recast it in terms of what he calls the Pyrrhonian challenge. The challenge is this: If the traditional conception of the role of reason and philosophy is rejected, how can this skepticism about philosophy avoid resulting in an uncritical, conservative acquiescence in the traditional and customary beliefs and values of common life? Within the contingent and fallible conditions of common life, is it possible to take a reflective and critical stand toward these beliefs and values? In recovering the moral thrust of the Pyrrhonian skeptical tradition and working it out historically through Montaigne, Hume, and Rousseau, as well as the Enlightenment response to it, Hiley argues that this challenge has to be recast in the twentieth century and interprets recent controversies about rationality, the relation of power and knowledge, and critiques of modernity in its terms.
